"It’s a novel prediction with strong elements with the finale as certainly the strongest moment where you turn over three cards which tell the spectator the name of a card they merely thought of. " -Paul Romhany, *Reviews Vanish Magazine

Chris Congreave's Omen is a self-working powerhouse of playing card mentalism with three jaw-dropping moments of magic.

Omen is perfect to perform on 1-2 spectators.

Two Person Presentation

Two spectators are invited to take part in your demonstration of the strange!

Spectator number one names any playing card (let's say they name the 9 of Spades). They are told to keep that card in their mind.

A second spectator is asked to freely cut a deck (which has been on view from the start) and remember the card they cut to.

Now for reveal number one. You pick up the deck, look at your spectator and without asking any questions, find the selected card.

Now for reveal number two. With an empty hand, you reach into your pocket and remove a matching card! So now not only have you found their card, but you have also proved you predicted which card they would freely cut to! Sounds good, right? But I know what you're saying. What about the thought-of-card card? Well, let me just say your final reveal is a show stopper!

"The routine itself is only a few minutes long but culminates in two big bangs. The patter is easy to remember, and no sleight of hand is required. " -Danny Selnick, Linking Ring Magazine

"Although Omen doesn’t seem to have made a huge splash in the magic world, it is to my mind one of the best releases I’ve looked at this year. The effect is incredibly strong and clean looking – lots of freedom for the spectator and only a few constraints on the handling. You can do it with one or two spectators – so there is good audience interaction too." -Phil Sweeting - Bicycle Cards.UK, Reviewer

"I recommend OMEN to all my magic friends. It's unique enough to stand out from anything else you're probably doing.. and unexpected enough to surprise those who are accustomed to typical card and mental magic effects. OMEN is definitely an 'attention getter', and will leave your spectators with something unique to talk about when you're finished. " -The Magic Roadshow Journal, Reviewer
